I must do some in-depth research to know more. All I remember at
this moment was that Tim Thorne, an überkook, was involved. Not a
smart person. One of the first kooks that I killfiled. All I know that
they sent forged stuff with "Supercedes:" headers to
news.admin.net-abuse.usenet, saying stuff like this is "banned from
the New America Newsservers".
Not to even mention that the supercede attack failed and the original
articles were still there. (They weren't exactly geniuses.)

They also had some kooky web pages that had some unbelieveably lame
and far-fetched excuses to justify spamming.
